A yellow weather warning has been issued covering most of North Wales with snow and ice set to hit the region.

The Met Office has put a warning in place effective from 6pm tomorrow until 10am on Monday, covering Wrexham, Flintshire, Denbighshire, Conwy and Gwynedd.

The national weather service said there could be travel disruption, with roads and bus and train services potentially affected.

It said: “A band of rain, sleet and snow followed by wintry showers will move south across Scotland and Northern Ireland on Sunday evening and into parts of northern England and north Wales early on Monday morning.

“Localised accumulations of 1-3 cm are possible to lower levels but higher accumulations are likely over higher ground.

“Above 250 metres, accumulations of 5-10 cm are possible.

“Whilst skies are expected to clear from the north overnight, icy patches are likely to develop and persist through to Monday morning.”
